Abstract: This study aims to specify the amount of ten heavy metals (Al, Cr, Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Cd, Hg, Pb) in water, sediment and Enteromorpha intestinalis samples gathered from Kadin Creek in seasonal periods in 2011 and 2012 and to reveal bioaccumulation capability of this macrophytic algae. In this regard, heavy metal concentrations in the gathered samples were determined first with mineralization and then via inductively coupled plasma mass spectroscopy (ICP-MS) method. Findings suggested that algae could be used … Show more

“…The result showed that samples collected in summer had more metals accumulated. Similar results were reported by Yozukmaz et al (2018), where authors described that both metal concentration and BCF of algae reached the highest level in the summer time and decreased in the autumn. Another study, however, reported increasing metal concentration and accumulation from autumn to winter, followed by a decreasing trend in spring (Bwapwa et al 2017).…”

“…Another important factor is anthropogenic activity, such as tourism and agriculture, which significantly affect various sites and seasons. In some places, a noticeable increase in the population during spring and summer affects the metal concentration (Yozukmaz et al 2018).…”

“…Because of the potential transfer of these pollutants through diet, their presence and concentration in the most basal trophic levels are important for understanding the dynamics of PAHs and HMs in food webs. Previous studies have demonstrated that several macroalgal species can bioconcentrate both PAHs and HMs in different ranges of concentration [35][36][37][38].…”

“…Furthermore, the solution obtained was heated on a hot plate at 95 o C for 1 hour. After that, the overall volume was increased to 50 mL with distilled water [6]. The concentration of heavy metals in dissolved algae was determined by ICP-OES.…”
